Mowlana

Why we love it

Mowlana is one of those hidden gems. Tucked away on Four Elms Road, this traditional Persian restaurant has built a loyal following among those who know it. Traditional stews are always worth a try, but the grilled chicken, more tender than a lover's kiss, is the city's best. Naan breads come in cubit lengths for arcane measurement fans, and the welcome is always exemplary. Try the joojeh (chicken kebab) – it's impossible to leave this place hungry, or to feel out of pocket!
